Telling the story of anxiety, loneliness and hope for the future, ‘Free’ details feelings that Ramsay believes many can relate to globally. Showcasing Ramsay’s warm and delicate vocals and complimented by Francis’ celestial soundscape, ‘Free’ gently builds with the pervasive soft piano, recorded in a rural Victorian church, and slowly adds layers of glimmering synths and acoustic guitars over a relaxed beat. ‘Free’ is as a floaty, light and luminous indie-pop offering from Ramsay.
